Will patches to compile and link C::B against wxWidgets 2.7.1 be accepted?

On second thought this is a lame reason. Might as well work
around the bug on wx 2.6.3, or wait until the 2.6.4 release...

Has this bug been confirmed that is a bug on wx 2.6.x ? I'm asking because I don't seem to have problems with wxExecute(), neither DialogBlocks which is compiled with wx 2.6.3 also I think, but it might be coincidence.
If it's a bug on wx 2.6 and you can confirm it has been solved on 2.7, a diff between those revisions should reveal the changes, and you could backport the changes to 2.6.3, as I don't think a 2.6.4 is planned anytime soon.

As I noted in the bug, I was able to reproduce it in the wx 2.6.3 sample, but in the wx 2.7.1 sample the bug was gone. Do you have such a wxExecute demo I could try ?
And it seem to coincide with this entry from the changelog:
--- Code: ---- Fixed non-detection of process termination on Intel Macs by
polling for process termination in a separate thread.
--- End code ---
BTW:
Why are there no more releases of the stable wxWidgets ?

because the next stable one will be 2.8.0, let's hope it's this week or next week

OK, so why are there no more releases of the legacy wxWidgets then ? ;-)

Not at hand unfortunately,

That's really great! Could you back-port the changes? I would be happy to have for the first time a C::B that can run programs on Carbon/Intel :D

AFAIK 2.7.2 is due to be released officially probably tomorrow (all wxAui classes will be renamed),
and 2.8 RC will be around november, 13,

There might be a 2.6.4, but I don't think anytime soon, if ever.
